991.2 Porsche 911 Carrera, Spanish.

thank you. Paint is really nice - amazing how even a new car can have imperfections and a day with a professional can improve so much.

Gorgeous car ! Loved the entrance too

Loving the manual gearbox, and the smaller GT wheel.

Lovely colour for it.

I thought the exhausts on the 991.2 were nearer the centre of the car?

So what's it like to drive? Much different from the NA 991.1?

Thought it might feel lacking after my 3.8 gts but it really doesnt. IMHO the turbos really help fill in the mid range. Still sounds great, and still loves revs. It really doesnt feel lacking and in the limited time inhave spent in it has all the performance you can realistically use on the road. For the babybof the range it doesn't feel short changed at all. Every control from steering to brakes and geabox just feels right.

Biased but it feels lile the sweet spot and best value in the 911 range to me. Assuming of course you can call 80k value. Consifer you can spend well.over 50-60k for a well specified 5 series and it doesnt seem so silly.....

Good to hear. The less is more route is often more fun!

Full spec below. Really nice to see something arrive you specified!

Bit more later, just popping out!

Excluding the roof, I cannot help but think that most of that equipment should be standard.

Cruise control!

Cant disgaree.

To clarify the wheels are included (How generous)

Delighted with the seats too - only Porsche could charge more for a mix of full leather and "sport-tex", but it brings the deviated stitching which really uplifts the interior, and non leather in the seat centres is a bonus in very cold or very hot weather IMHO.

If anyone else has a Porsche with the new PCM4 and the base in the arm rest - should that do wireless charging by the way?

Ooh! Nice! I'd love to replace the 140 with an F10 M5... the prices are nose diving.

They always dive in the first year, but have levelled out now new supply has stopped.

Still not been able to get the keys much, but really loving the car - gearbox is a peach and the turbo engine is brilliant.

First wash at the weekend and still not a mark on it. Yet! Ceramic coating makes washing a breeze too. well worth it.
